I Got No Strings To Hold Me Down...
This year - the past 365 days - will go down in history as the year I lost just about everything. I lost my grandfather, my career that I loved, then Happy, my best friend and furry loyal companion. Finally almost immediately following that my boyfriend of 6 years, and with that crushing blow my home. Now some people would let this keep them down. ( Read more... ) -

Happy passed away in my arms yesterday morning.
I'm just so sick with grief I don't even know what to do with myself.
I'd elaborate, but I'm just not ready.
Rest in peace, my baby. You know Mommy loves you.....

I miss the familiarity of home - of ( Read more... ) -
Live from Copenhagen Airport!!
Sitting on the floor in the middle of the concourse because it's the only place I could find to charge my phone and tablet...drinking cheap/overpriced airport wine, having not showered since early yesterday. I feel like a hobo ( Read more... ) -
Live From Reykjavik Iceland!!
Well I just got in here about an hour ago, and it's currently a little after 10am. I have to say Icelandair is a nice airline, especially for the price. And while I slept most of my flight in here, I had the pleasure of watching the sun rise over Iceland - which was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen, with colors I've never seen before ( Read more... ) -

Today I had a really great Skype conversation with my friend in Germany, Joachim. He showed me his brand new kitchen (spiffy!), and we talked about everything from different politics in Germany to our accents (he thinks I sound slightly British, LMAO) to our families' histories ( Read more... )
